Yes ma'am! That happened to me last night when I had one bite too much of my shrimp. It'll go down eventually. I found that walking helps me. By the time I'm done with my walk, then I get to have a drink. It'll go away, but now you'll be listening to when you may need to stop before that one last bite.

Oh boyyy am I listening! ... so hmm.. i guess if i survived 3 weeks on liquids then i'll be alright.. thanks for the rapid response..

I just made a creamy scrambled egg with cottage cheese (less than 3 ounces) i barely took in an ounce before i had to stop.. i feel like the food is still in my esophagus and it's been like 30 mins!! Has that happened to anyone here? What do i do?

Oh yes!!!! It feels like the nasty Vitamins capsules.

We had a huge storm last night. It was so beautiful. My house was rumbling, lightning everywhere. Lasted for over an hour. Loved it! But, our neighboring fence is down. So, we have to talk with them to get it fixed fast, we've got two large dogs that we can't let out until that's done.

Ive decided to just have a Protein Shake for Breakfast this morning. I couldn't make anything cause the power was out. It finally came on just now (been out since 2am).

We're due for more storms in an hour. Best part, I get to stay home in it. 😊

Lets remember this day always for the beautiful people who sacrificed their lives for our freedom .

Hey all I was wondering do you girls weight your food? And if you do what's the limit?

I do and I keep it at 4 oz or 117g. I still can't always eat all of that portion.

Good late morning gals. I had rough night, but I finally managed to have a significant BM. It has left me feeling sore this morning and I am still having some cramping. I am going to lay low today and hopefully I will feel better as the day goes on.

I am thinking about grilling a little chicken for my dh tonight. @Sweet as peaches Didn't you eat some grilled chicken? Did you blend or just chew it really really good? I am thinking I may try a little thigh meat. I'll cook up some squash with onions and butter to go with it.

Back to work tomorrow. I hope I am feeling better. I hope everyone having a good Memorial Day. Thank you @Newme17 for your tribute to the servicemen and women.

That's how I get when I finally had a bm too. Glad it came for you.

You have yourself a great day too Apple. 😊 Enjoy your chicken!

So, I tried chicken! It was so good and yummy. We took our girls to eat out. I just figured I'd nibble on what they order. Nope, corn dog, fries, mac n cheese, mozzarella sticks....nevermind that. So I just asked for a grilled chicken breast with some cheese thrown on top. It was the best grilled chicken I've had in a long time. Very juicy, so that helped a lot. Of course I brought the rest home and threw it in the freezer for later. It was a nice addition to the limited foods I've been eating. Yay for chicken!

Sounds like an evening out with my 12 year old daughter she loves all that you mentioned. Except I am lucky if I come back with a dime in my pocket she will eat me out a house and a home. Yay for chicken breast.

My kids will too. I swear they're all in a growing spurt at the same time. They ate all their food, shared with each other. That was two hours ago. Now they're eating again. Thankfully, kids ate free at Applebee's today, so we spent $17 for all 5 of us. I call that a win!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      3. buildabetteranna

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
